Hi guys,
I have been put onto the Freestyle libre sensor by my local hospital. According to the hospital my GP should be able to supply this as the CCG has approved it.
My GP’s practice have contacted me today (7 days left on my sensor) to say that they can’t supply the sensors as they are not on their formulary and issued me with a blood meter instead.
I am completely baffled as to why they can’t supply it and why on earth would I want another meter when testing my fingers was my biggest problem; I get the feeling this is a cost issue. I’m really unhappy. Any advice?
I appreciate your thoughts, Haleema x
